N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

The Twycross specimen presumably collected by Andrew Bloxam. Wrongly entered on H@H as Centaurium erythraea

Sorry about that. It looks as though a whole folder was entered with the spurious id. I've documented the remaining 'C. erythraea' sheets from the folder, to correct the name, but it's possible others have slipped through already.
